Content and physical description
ContentHe thanks FJ for the parcel; sends her a copy of a letter from Vanek; on Thursday he flies to Zurich and then to the Arosa Spa for a fortnight; Frank is still in Vienna- waiting for the visum and is going to Luhačovice, he wants to visit Polička; he sets the record straight about Rybka's slander of R. Firkušný (concerning the place of the premiere of Incantations); he has only one recording of Studanek- he wants to write to Frank to ask him to come back in case of an accident. He is going to move with Ch. to Basel at the end of the holidays- BM will have its premiere there in January; mentions Kupka, who has just died; asks if the doctor has found an apartment yet; he probably won't see Frank this year- doubts he would go to Rome without a car, Doris was not happy that he left.
